I write this review based on fact. Hicks Hadley are without a doubt very bad letting agents.
We have recently bought our first house. Prior to this we rented a property for 3 years through Hicks Hadley while we saved for a deposit.
From early on it seemed that HH treat all renters with utter disdain. They really treat you like second class citizens. They are very abrupt and sometimes border line rude in the way they talk to you on the phone or face to face.
If you encounter any maintenance issues whilst at your property then your pretty much on your own.
We had a boiler breakdown in the first year we were there. It took them well over 2 weeks to fix. They do not return calls or follow up anything. You literally have to chase every step. In the end we had to raise an official complaint to get the problem delt with.
It is highly apparent that no one in their office communicates with each other or actually takes ownership of issues (despite it being a small firm with less than 20 employees)
Their fees are ridiculous. They will try to charge you £90 every 6 months for a tennancy renewal (illegal in Scotland btw) even if no details change.
Hicks Hadley are purely there for their own financial gain. They also keep/withhold info from the landlords. We had another issue regarding maintenance. They told us that Landlord was aware of the issue. By chance we bumped into landlord, when asked she was not aware of issue and she was frankly horrified nothing had been done.
The issue was then rectified obviously because she complained.
It proves they will tell lies and play you off with the landlord. If I were a landlord I would not use them as your property would not be looked after properly.
We thought that renting would be a pleasant experience. Despite paying all our rent on time with no issues, Hicks Hadley ensured that on the whole renting was a negative experience. Speaking to friends who also rent they say that their agents are generally good. My friends have letting agents who are national. Hicks Hadley however seem to be a 'two Bob' little Black Country firm with no real understanding (or care) how to run a letting agency.
If you are a renter avoid at all costs.
We are just glad we have our own home now and no longer have to deal with this vile rude third rate little firm.
What agent could do to change your mind?
Bad. They are on par with London fees although based in the Black Country West Midlands.
